1. SOMETHING WICKED THIS WAY COMES

The six time award winner for the "Best American Science Writer" Atul Gawande wrote an article on June 28th 2012, about how the Obamacare may be a solution to various people around the world that don't have a protective health insurance or can not afford medications their body need, in order to survive. Atul begins his article by asking friends, how some of their patients have been affected by the absence of insurance. He also informs the readers that a New Jersey internist says "too numerous to count". The rest of his article he talks about how the people who lack health insurance don't have any benefits, and how over the century  people have wanted freedom of speech, freedom of religion, etc. Now they also need the freedom to health care insurance. Everyone is human and one day are going to need that insurance. Atul ends with a statement saying that Americans are on their way to understanding this, and if they actually do "now, that would be wicked".

Gawande's purpose to this article is to inform the readers that everyone needs a proper health care, and that through ObamaCare  many Americans will have that proper care and insurance. He shows this when he writes, "Tens of millions of Americans don’t have access to basic care for prevention and treatment of illness".
